You know, there's a hormone called oxytocin. It's the love hormone. When you look in your dog's eye, your oxytocin goes up and so does theirs. And when oxytocin goes up, your blood pressure goes down, you feel more relaxed, you get a sense of calm, anxiety goes away. And so we all need these bursts of oxytocin in our life and dogs can provide it.

And then there are the little things they do to our schedule, right? Dogs like to eat the same time every day, which by the way, is what we as humans were made to do and is much healthier for us. So you get up in the morning, you walk the dog. Walking is good. The regular times a day, hopefully that tends to your own mealtime. And you have companionship.

What you look at in every study of health outcomes, longevity, is people with companionship do better. Dogs with their oxytocin bursts are an amazing form of companionship.

Oh, first of all, that was a big assumption. Some people have connections to rhinoceri or rhinoceroses. I'm not even sure which one it is. Um, but you know, he, The rhinoceroses were unfortunately captured much for their horns because there was this notion that it can affect sexual potency and other things, even though it's not true. They were endangered.

Several zoos tried to breed rhinoceros in captivity, and it didn't work. Everyone was getting very nervous that this species, which literally looks and acts like a dinosaur, would be extinct. Then they noticed that, you know, renaturas are big. They eat a lot of food. So zoos don't have a lot of resources. They were feeding them basically soy protein.

and soy has estrogenic components it acts like the hormone estrogen is what we call a phytoestrogen a plant source of estrogen so when they change the source of protein to a different source of protein that didn't have the estrogenic parts all of a sudden they were able to breed rhinos in captivity and what we clearly see is that you know eating natural food is tremendously important

But too much of anything can have unintended consequences. And in this case, phytoestrogens, if you feed a child soy milk, they will develop breast buds. The breast will be slightly enlarged compared to a child who's not because of the estrogenic components. So it really begs to look at what we eat. And we were made to eat a varied diet. We're made to eat real food, so not processed food.
